Users API with CI/CD Automation

Overview

This is a fork of otomato-gh/usersapi with added automation using Ansible, Terraform, and a Jenkins pipeline. The project is designed to build, deploy, and manage a containerized users API on an Amazon EKS cluster.

Jenkins Pipeline Setup

Required Plugins

Ensure the following Jenkins plugins are installed:

• GitHub
• Pipeline: GitHub
• Docker
• Pyenv Pipeline
• Kubernetes
• GitHub Integration
• Amazon Web Services SDK :: All

Global Environment Variables

Go to Manage Jenkins > System > Global properties and configure:

Variable	Description
DOCKER_REGISTRY	The Docker registry URL
EKS_CLUSTER_NAME	The name of the EKS cluster
GLOBAL_AWS_REGION	AWS region for EKS deployment

Jenkins Credentials

ID	Description
docker-creds	Docker login credentials (username/password)
aws-creds	AWS credentials (access key/secret key)

Deployment Workflow

1. Infrastructure Setup with Terraform

cd terraform/
terraform init
terraform apply -auto-approve

This sets up the EC2 instance, EBS storage, and EKS cluster.

2. Configuration with Ansible

ansible-playbook -i ansible/inventory ansible/deploy.yml

For setting up the server.

3. Run the Jenkins Pipeline

The pipeline will:

1. Lint and test the application
2. Build the Docker image
3. Push the image to DOCKER_REGISTRY
4. Deploy the Helm chart to EKS
